Nikki's game today.

Noel talks about Brian's game, and how despite the £20,000 banker beating, there was an unusual feeling as Brian was one box away from a six-figure sum of money....Noel tells today player to play their game their own way, and the most important thing is getting the most money possible! Noel runs through some facts about the players ; Millie has a first degree in politics, Ally is a champion hurdler, and newbie Grace is celebrating her 67th birthday today!



Nikki has Box 5 today. Nikki Reeves is a 26-year old stage actress...she talks to Noel about some of the plays she's been in, she tells him it's the best job ever as she can be an actress without having to be famous...Noel says that not anymore as millions will be watching her right now! Noel quickly gets a mask for Nikki to put on so she can't be seen! Nikki laughs and asks if she can take it off as it's hurting her nose! Noel asks Nikki whether she's a gambler or not, Nikki says she thinks she is a bit, but maybe that'll change when it actually becomes her money! Nikki's partner Paul is in the audience...Nikki says she's still waiting for Paul to propose to her...Noel tells Paul to get on with it!

Nikki confirms she chose Box 5 at random, and Noel says he thinks this is going to be a very fun game...

Here we go...

12 - £20,000 Hannah

7 - £10,000 Jimmy

Banker time



Nikki laughs and Noel says she's an actress and she's just had an awful opening round, so she should make it more dramatic! Nikki screams and faux-cries...Noel says it's very good, and the banker rings and says with an actress on his hands, it'll be hard to tell what she's thinking...he says it was nearly the worst opening round he's ever seen!

Banker offers

£1,000

Nikki says she didn't think she'd find herself saying this, but £1,000 is a very good offer...she says she's ready though

Nikki says

NO DEAL

Next round...time for some blues, Nikki says!

20 - £5 Sam

22 - £500 Amie

Nikki gives Amie a kiss and chooses Sebastian next...Noel asks Nikki if she knows what's coming, and tells her she should have known the cue for a break...Noel asks Nikki to make sure everyone comes back, and Nikki says we can watch her and Noel take centre stage....

Welcome back
One more to go...a very dramatic game, Noel says! Nikki is sticking with Sebastian...

14 - 10p Sebastian

Banker time



Nikki says it's looking a lot better now, and Noel says it would have been hard to make it worse! The banker rings and says it's time for Nikki to take her bow...

Banker offers

£6,000

Noel tells Nikki that it's a very good offer, and she agrees...she says she has a whole game in front of her yet! Gabe tells Nikki not to think that because it's so early on that it might not be the biggest offer in the game...Nikki says she didn't come here to play for a couple of rounds and win £6,000!

Nikki says

NO DEAL

Next round...Nikki wishes Grace a happy 67th birthday, and Noel welcomes her to the game! Grace says she's recieving so many celebratory messages at once!

11 - £15,000 Gabe

Mixed reactions about that...Nikki says it's okay...

21 - £35,000 Olivia

Banker time



Noel says there's a huge gap now, and it's a gamblers game...the banker rings and says it's been a young persons game nearly all week...he says he wants more players like the beautiful Grace who has joined us today! Noel asks if there's a Battle Of The Ages on it's way, and the banker says no, as he doesn't want to embarrass all the youngsters when it turns out the over 50's are much better! Back to Nikki...the banker says it's a board that only a fool would no deal on...

Banker offers

£4,400

Nikki says it's not good enough...she asks if anyone would deal now, and no one puts their hands up! Noel asks the audience, and one woman raises her hand and Noel tells her she could be the only sensible person in the room!

Nikki says

NO DEAL

Next round...

2 - £5,000 Barry

Okay, Nikki says...

10 - £3,000 Ai-Linh

Noel says Nikki seems to love these reds...he says we'll try and ween her off them during the break!

Welcome back to Nikki's game!
It's nearly curtain call, and we're going to see if Nikki will win a lot of money, Noel says...

6 - £50 Vicki

Banker time



The banker rings and asks what Nikki things would have a good offer...Nikki says she remembers Roy got an offer of £15,000 with a similar board...the banker says the board is half as good and Nikki is half the threat!

Banker offers

£7,500

Half the board, half the threat, and now half the offer you asked for, Noel says...your highest offer yet, he reminds her...Nikki says she thinks it's a poor offer...Noel says that banker won't like that! The banker rings and apologizes that it wasn't good enough for her...

Banker offers

£3,750

Nikki laughs...halved again, Noel says! Nikki asks if that's serious, and Noel says it seems to be...Nikki says the banker is wasting his time trying to get her out with sums like that...the banker rings and asks if Nikki is still not happy, and Nikki says she isn't! The banker says he's so close to halving it again...Nikki asks for the question at £3,750

Nikki says

NO DEAL

Nikki says the banker is so mean...she says she should have gotten to 5-figures at least...Noel says it's been a fun show, but this is when it gets serious...he tells Nikki she can't hit either of the big two...

9 - £100,000 Jon

Huge groans and Nikki sighs...Noel says if she find the £75,000 now, it's all over...

19 - £1 Louise

Nikki says she needs to find that 1p...

18 - £100 Arnold

Banker time



Nikki says that it's still okay...the banker rings and thinks that an offer over £5,000 will get Nikki out, and she shakes her head and dares him...the banker says that she's trying so hard to be a threat, but it's just not working!

Banker offers

£6,000

Nikki looks fairly pleased with that and she says the banker must want her out...Nikki says she really wants to go on, but it could all be over in one box...she says £6,000 is a lot to her, but it's not enough...she asks Paul who says to think really wisely, as they don't want to have regrets...Nikki says on the wings she would no deal, and Noel asks why it's different now, and Nikki laughs that it's her money now! Nikki says this week, loads of people have taken risks, and some have paid off, like Scarletts, but some haven't, like Peters, and she's got a bad feeling...

Nikki says

Noel says £6,000 is a lot of money, and Nikki says she's happy...Noel says he can tell she's disappointed she didn't have a better board, as he could tell there was a gambler waiting to be unleashed inside her! We play on to prove that Nikki didn't blow £75,000....

17 - £750 David

8 - £75,000 Patrick

Big cheers...Nikki laughs and gives him a kiss

4 - £10 Kay

Banker time with 1p and £1,000 remaining



Noel says that Nikki took the most money possible out of her game...the banker rings and says she didn't, as there was £7,500 for her which she halved with her rudeness!

Banker would have offered

Nikki said she may have dealt, as she really didn't want to win 1p! Noel says he hopes it's in Box 5 now...

Noel opens Box 5 and reveals 1p

Millie opens Box 16 and shows us the £1,000

So you sold a 1p box for £6,000, beat the banker, and by the looks of things, had a great time, Noel says! Nikki says she's had an amazing time, and it's been an experience she'll never forget...Noel tells us to join him on Sunday for another great episode....

153 Nikki - £6,000 - 1p - £6,000 - £200
£1,000 - £6,000 - £4,400 - £3,750 - £6,000 - £200

Well done Nicki!
